I would say try and get the 640MB version if possible to fit in your budget, otherwise the 320MB card isn't bad, REALISTILCLY I recommend waiting for the 8800GT to be released soon, suppsto be faster that the 8800 GTS, slower than GTX thou, and cheaper than both to boot! I think they are coming early November if I remember correctly

People that do not own a 2900 XT should not talk about them or their performance based on some biased reviews on the web. It games like a monster for me @ 1920X1200. Don't believe the crap you read. But if you're not gaming, why bother with a high end ANY brand card.

8800GT? I have to check this out. And no, I won't be gaming much with the card. I simply have 400$ to spend, and finally have a video card to match the quality parts of my rig. It would be my very first high-end card.

Just in time where I sell my rig :D, and yeah you should be fine on the 320MB man , maybe you'd have to chop the AA at some point or something else but you should be able to game right with the 320.

Yeah I have a 320mb card and I can play CS:S @ 1920 x 1200 with 16AA and 16AF maxed with about 70fps-90fps. All games maxed. World in conflict is one of the only games I have it struggles with. And that I run at 1680 x 1050. So it is a nice card. But wait for the 8800GT. It is suppose to be around $280 and will have 512 mb of ram.
